Compensation for Inverted Projections

If no system datum is configured when using absolute positioning or if no part tracking is used then projections will be shown incorrectly. To make sure that the projection is shown in the correct orientation the following actions need to be taken for ILS and IPG:

1. Defining the coordinate system for ILS correctly

2. Calibrating the IPG

3. Teaching the positions

Definition of the Coordinate system for ILS

ILG defines the workspace coordinate system using three uniquely identified tags, arranged in an L-shaped configuration:

• Tag 1 - Origin: defines the coordinate system origin (0.0.0)

• Tag 2 - x-axis reference point: defines the positive direction of the x-axis (from the orgin)

• Tag 3 - xy-plane reference point: defines the direction of the y-axis and established the xy-plane.

From these three reference points, ILG calculates the full 3D coordinate system, including the z-axis, using the right-hand rule.

Axis Orientation

• X-axis: should point to the right

• Y-axis should point upward

• Z-axis should point outward towards the ILS sensor

For instructions to ensuring a projection in the correct orientation, refer to the Enabling correct Projection Orientation chapter.
